    Learning creo from SW, very basic questions

    Dave, I think the constrained issue is a grey area and is perspective. I'd argue hard against the creo approach, here is why...So a fully strong sketch in creo is deemed fully constrained. So is a fully weak sketch. If I go into another software and fully dimension a sketch then delete all...
